Occupational health is an area in which Nursing Care Process has an important role, as we are in a professional environment in charge of the provision of patient care, in this case workers. Its implementation will involve the use of a scientific method by the Labor Nurse in her daily practice, involving these five areas: prevention, care, teaching and research, administrative and management. The main objective of the implementation of this tool will be to provide a structure that can cover individualized needs of workers who demand the attention of the prevention area, improving efficiency and effectiveness of work and an easier and higher rate of the healing process. This application is certainly new, as we apply a traditional pattern of Nursing in a new area of occupational health.
